Madness in Mardi Gras

[Verse] Serious man in uniform Now he wears a jester's charm City life a dance of doom Evil lurks in Mardi's gloom [Verse 2] Once he walked a silent beat Now the tunes make him repeat Laughing loud through tears of fear Chasing nightmares all too near [Chorus] Madness in the Mardi night Jester's tears with firelight Helter-skelter through the crowd Echoing with laughter loud [Verse 3] Street lights dim hearts are lost Bright balloons a heavy cost His badge is now a fool's disguise Twisted waltz beneath the skies [Verse 4] Evil wears a mocking face Turning order into chase Faces blur and shadows spin In the jest his darkness grins [Chorus] Madness in the Mardi night Jester's tears with firelight Helter-skelter through the crowd Echoing with laughter loud
